Kyrie Irving has been widely debated in the NBA for a few years, and that’s an understatement. Accustomed to talk about him thanks to his prowess on the floor, the leader annoys many people with his behavior outside today. Nevertheless, a journalist wanted to make a big necessary point.
The arrival of Kyrie Irving in Texas did not have the desired effect. At least not yet. The Mavericks have still not confirmed their ticket to the playoffs, and today find themselves 11th in the Western Conference, provisionally eliminated. This is not the dream for Luka Doncic, plagued by personal problems according to his words, explaining his alarming statement the day before. A real nightmare in Dallas.
Despite everything that happens, no time to feel sorry for his fate at the Mavericks. Jason Kidd expects a quick reaction from his players, especially since the coach is probably playing his position: a new disappointment and we imagine that Mark Cuban will want change. The fans therefore expect a lot from Kyrie Irvingarrived as the “savior” at the deadline.
Exemplary Kyrie Irving with the Mavs?
The results are disappointing at the moment, with more defeats than victories for the Kyrie/Luka duo. It takes a period of adjustments, sure, but fans are frustrated with the process, to the point of whistling the point guard. Journalist Tim MacMahon therefore wanted to make an update concerning the person concerned. According to him, it would be exemplary since its arrival in trade.
The Mavs’ results since the Kyrie Irving trade have obviously been disappointing, but I’ve only heard praise about his professionalism and locker room presence during his brief time in Dallas. Blaming Luka Doncic’s frustration on Irving isn’t fair or accurate.

The Mavericks’ results since Kyrie Irving’s trade are obviously disappointing, but I’ve heard nothing but praise for his professionalism and contribution to the locker room since he arrived in Dallas. Putting Luka Doncic’s frustration on Irving isn’t fair or deserved.
Failing to fully convince on the floor with his teammates, Irving behaves at least as a model teammate. A good attitude from the leader, convinced that the Mavs will be able to bounce back from this end of the season. It’s up to him and Luka Doncic to find solutions… at the risk of experiencing a turbulent summer of 2023.
Kyrie Irving has behaved like a true professional since arriving in Dallas, contrary to what some may think. Good for the Mavericks, who are counting on the point guard and the other players to bounce back in the playoffs. But nothing is done yet in the West…
